Imperial has small diesel release at Sarnia refinery

CALGARY, Alberta Nov 24 Imperial Oil Ltd
(IMO.TO) reported a small release of diesel fuel early on
Thursday from a unit undergoing maintenance at its Sarnia,
Ontario, refinery, requiring the closure of a nearby street.

The road has since been cleaned and reopened following the
release of about one barrel of the product as a fine mist, the
company said.

It is not believed there is any impact on production at the
121,000 barrel a day plant, Imperial spokesman Pius Rolheiser
said.

The company said it had notified the Ontario Environment
Ministry and is investigating the incident.
